338 Minor Repairs
After charging the battery
After the battery is connected or after an exhaus-
tively discharged battery is charged, the PSM
warning light lights up on the instrument panel and
a message appears on the multi-purpose display
of the instrument panel to indicate a fault.
This fault can be remedied with a few simple
steps:
1. Start the engine.
To do this, turn the ignition key or the control
unit (on vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive) to
ignition lock position 2 twice.
2. With the vehicle stationary, perform a few
steering movements to the left and right and
then drive a short distance in a straight line
until the PSM warning light goes out and the
message is erased from the multi-purpose
display of the instrument panel.
3. If the warnings do not disappear, then have the
fault repaired.
Consult a qualified specialist workshop. We
recommend that you use a Porsche partner for
this work since these are staffed with trained
personnel and have the necessary parts and
tools.
4. After the warnings disappear:
Stop the vehicle in a suitable place.
5. Perform teaching of the power windows. To do
this:
Please observe the chapter “STORING FINAL
POSITION OF THE DOOR WINDOWS AFTER
CONNECTING THE VEHICLE BATTERY” on
Page 91.
6. Teach tyres on vehicles with Tyre Pressure
Monitoring:
Please observe the chapter “SETTING TYRE
PRESSURE MONITORING” on Page 135.
7. Store end positions on vehicles with
electrically folding trailer coupling. To do this:
Please observe the chapter “STORING END
POSITIONS OF THE TRAILER COUPLING” on
Page 252.
